Main

Daniel B. Turner

I assemble big ecological datasets from start to finish, from an abstract idea at a meeting to the finished product, with transparent, reproducible, and efficient code. I have studied animals and plants from across the Americas, and I seek to develop novel data science methods to facilitate mulitlateral knowledge exchange between ecologists and their stakeholders.
